Our Process

Step 01

Activities
1. Define

Our clients entrust us with a design brief that serves as the cornerstone of our creative process. This document encapsulates their specific needs, preferences, and expectations, offering valuable insight into the essence of their brand or project. By delving into this brief, we gain an intimate understanding of their target audience, the industry landscape, and the context in which the design will be applied. This deeper awareness enables us to tailor our creative approach effectively. With this comprehensive understanding in hand, we collaboratively define a set of dos and don'ts. These guidelines help us make informed decisions throughout the design process, ensuring that our work aligns with the brand's core values and resonates with the intended audience.

2. Research + Ideation

Research is the cornerstone of effective design. It's the process of gathering, analyzing, and synthesizing information that informs and shapes the design process. Whether designing a website, or a physical space, research is a must step. We look for insights into user behavior, market trends, and technological advancements, go through Moodboard, and collect references from online and offline platforms. Moving ahead, we hold a meeting where the team brainstorms, invites ideas, innovation, and creativity, and focuses on sticking to unconventionally brilliant ideas which helps designers to make informed decisions that lead to more successful and user-centered designs. However, this whole session of discussing and ideating is no less than a war room, where coffee can only pacify them.

3. Prototype

Before diving into the design phase, we take a thoughtful approach, one that emphasizes experimentation and preparation. We create small-scale prototypes, which can be considered as initial drafts or concepts, leveraging the insights garnered from our extensive research and the references collected. These prototypes typically represent only a fraction, around 5% to 10%, of the eventual design. Through these preliminary prototypes, we begin to solidify the visual elements, design guidelines, and overall aesthetic direction. This initial exploration provides us with how we can efficiently, effectively, and seamlessly achieve the final product. It allows us to iron out potential challenges and hurdles, ensuring a smoother and more successful design journey.

Step 02

Activities
1. Design

Now, the designing phase unfolds, where we infuse expression, aesthetics, colours, and creativity into our work. In our relentless pursuit of innovation, we continually explore fresh, creative opportunities. Design, for us, is an evolving process, gradually taking form and structure and we want our clients to have the best of it. Each design our creative team crafts is meticulously tailored to meet the specific needs and aspirations of our clients. While aesthetics are a crucial part of the equation, we understand that exceptional design goes beyond mere visual appeal; it should serve a defined purpose and elevate experiences. With every project, our aim is to inspire and leave a lasting, positive imprint through thoughtful, purposeful design that resonates with both our clients and their audience expectations and preferences.

2. Improvisation

The next stage of the process is Improvisation. At this stage, we ensure internal approvals through a review process, involving our creative teams to scrutinize and fine-tune the design from various perspectives. But our journey doesn't stop there; we highly value the insights and preferences of our clients. Their feedback is instrumental in shaping the final design, ensuring it aligns perfectly with their vision and objectives. Once we get the feedback from both our teams and clients, we again share the design with them for approval. However, in our practices, we stay honest, and if the client cannot resonate with our thought process behind the design or does not agree with the design, we make efforts to convince them, but if they wish to not, we are professionals who do exactly what the client wants.

Logo + Brand Design
For Saarthi, a logo is not just about designing but a series of strategic decisions. Before we jump into it, there are sessions where we understand the brand thoroughly, and get an in-depth insight into its challenges and opportunities. This helps us to determine the shapes and colours to use in the logo according to a specific emotion or sentiment that must be reflected in it. Ultimately, we prepare the final design of the logo that becomes the identity of the brand.

Facebook & Instagram Post Design
The team Saarthi insists on a customized approach for Facebook and Instagram posts where we focus on showcasing 3 features customized to the school. Designing engaging posts for schools requires a thoughtful approach that not only captures attention but also conveys the essence of the institution's educational mission. Visual content is vibrant and inclusive, showcasing a diverse range of students, teachers, and activities to reflect the school's community. Utilizing the school's colours, logo, and unique identifiers is essential for brand consistency. Our copies stay aligned with the brand’s aspirations. Not only posting but we ensure that Captions are concise and informative, and highlight the school's values and accomplishments with a relevant group of hashtags. Overall, a well-designed post strategy not only informs but also creates a sense of belonging and pride among students, parents, and alumni.

Website Design
Your school’s website has not to be only good-looking but efficient as well. As most of the potential clients visit the website through mobile, it becomes crucial that your school’s website’s UI/UX is designed with a mobile-first approach that can guarantee the website functions seamlessly on smartphones and tablets, catering to the modern prospective parents and students who frequently access content on mobile devices and converting them into clients. Also, remember an SEO-friendly website ranks well in search engine results, making it easier for prospective students and parents to discover your school. Furthermore, make sure that your website is fast-loading and can access information swiftly. Finally, having simplified coding not only enhances website performance but also makes it more maintainable and adaptable for future updates. So, when Saarthi is here your school does not have to fear. Whether it's PHP or WordPress, we are proficient in both as per your school’s needs.

Prospectus
Prospectus is one of the print services which we offer. A well-crafted prospectus should reflect your school's unique character, showcasing its academic excellence, extracurricular offerings, and facilities. It's crucial to strike a balance between informative content and captivating visuals for which reason we have a minimal design approach. Saarthi team even conducts a planned and customized photoshoot for the prospectus particularly so to use high-quality photographs to create a compelling narrative. Our aim is to provide your school with a prospectus that gives a visually rich experience to your prospective parents and students. Ultimately, a thoughtfully designed prospectus serves as a powerful tool to engage prospective students and parents, leaving them with a positive impression and a deeper understanding of what the school has to offer.

Flyer + Standee
A good design is a functional design. What may look good on screen may not do well in print. Therefore, we are very clear with our approach that includes the utilization of white space as it can catch the attention of the viewer and give them a better understanding of your brand through flyers and standees. Without any grain of doubt, we keep designs visually appealing with minimal content for its enchantment. Our team specializes in crafting visually appealing and informative flyers and standees that effectively communicate a school's events, programs, and initiatives. We understand the importance of capturing the attention of students, parents, and the community, and our designs reflect the school's unique identity and values.

Billboard + Flex
What to design is not our challenge but making the right decision according to the requirement is. For billboards, we have clarity that our viewers have only 2-3 seconds to attractively deliver our message. On the contrary, the viewers have ample time to properly go through the flexes. So, now the question arises what to show where? School Saarthi, with its expertise in design, excels at crafting impactful billboards and flexes tailored to the unique needs of educational institutions. Our designs not only catch the eye but also communicate the essence of the school effectively. We understand the importance of conveying academic excellence, values, and the overall learning environment in a visually compelling way. So, every marketing agency creates great designs, and so do we. But, making the decision of what billboard will hold and what flexes will show is the real marketing instinct.

Space Design
We specialize in space designing for schools, creating environments that are not only functional but also inspirational. From the outer walls to the primary wings to the waiting lounge area of the school, we are experienced in every kind of space design. Our team understands the unique needs of educational institutions, and we take pride in crafting spaces that foster creativity, collaboration, and learning. It has been more than 10 years since Saarthi has been innovatively designing spaces from classrooms, libraries, science, maths, english labs, and Atal Tinkering Labs to common areas and outdoor spaces.

Almanac Design
In the almanac, there is space-wise less opportunity for designing. However, Saarthi knows that this almanac will stay in the hands of students and teachers throughout the year, so it is crucial that it makes them feel good and catches their attention. From custom illustrations and inspirational quotes to important school policies and milestones, our almanac designs are carefully curated to be informative, visually appealing, and memorable. Therefore, the spaces that we get in the pages, we fully take into use, and throughout the pages, we put designs, illustrations, and graphics to create an engaging storytelling experience that students and teachers can enjoy for the rest of the academic year. We believe that a well-designed almanac not only helps with day-to-day scheduling but also serves as a keepsake that students and their families will cherish, reinforcing their connection with the school community.
